In collaboration with Dr Shweta Bansal, we have received a 5-year grant to study vaccination and re-emergence of childhood diseases. We are looking to recruit two postdoctoral research associates for this project.

As part of a collaborative team, led by Dr Mark Tompkins, Pej received a grant to study the effects of the microbiome on the outcomes of respiratory infections. The project is funded by the UGA President’s Interdisciplinary Seed Grant Program.

Opportunities

I would be interested in receiving enquiries from potential postdocs with a strong background in quantitative sciences and an interest in the range of projects in the lab.

Please identify the research area in the lab that you would be interested in working on, together with a brief description of your background and experience. Please also arrange for 3 references to send letters of recommendation to me directly.

If you are interested in the lab’s research focuses, please send me an e-mail (rohani@uga.edu) for more information. You can also visit the Odum School of Ecology webpage for more information on graduate programs and the application process

Rohani Lab

Research in the Rohani lab focuses on population biology, usually of host-natural enemy interactions, with a view to understanding fundamental processes in ecology and evolution. We use a combination of mathematical modelling, data analysis and statistical inference to understand the ecology and evolution of infectious diseases of humans and wildlife, including childhood infections and emerging infectious diseases.
